Beyond Compliance: Unlocking DEIA's Transformative Power

 

In today's rapidly evolving world, diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) are no longer just buzzwords or checkmarks on a compliance form. They're the driving forces behind innovation and organizational success.

I was skeptical about joining The Society for Diversity because I’ve joined other diversity organizations only to find that they offered very little. The Society for Diversity has been far more than I anticipated. The resources provided via webinars and readings are beneficial for my career as a Supplier Diversity Manager. Membership has also required me to shift my approach and mindset, specifically around addressing unconscious bias and advancing my understanding of inclusion. I have been able to coach my corporate DEI Council members, ERGs leaders, colleagues, and executive-level leaders with insights from my learnings. With a great measure of confidence, I am better equipped to address concerns of belonging in my service/social organizations. Joining The Society for Diversity has been one of the best investments to support my professional growth in the DEI field.

Being part of an amazing network of professionals has broadened my knowledge on DEIB. As an HR professional and a Certified Diversity Professional, I am a change agent for my department. DEI and HR complement each other so well that I can speak to it daily. As a member of the Society for Diversity, I am provided with informative and applicable webinars. I am so grateful to be a part of this great community.
